    It has about 40-50hp less than the gtr (according to MT's 507whp on the gtr) So what would you expect?

    Actually I think the GTR has 480whp.

    Read MT's review, they dyno'd at 507(sorry to the crank, assuming only 15% drivetrain loss) though they estimate it to be more around the 550 range, due to the fact that only 15% loss would be quite a feat with awd. So either Nissan is understating the HP, or they secretly upped the HP on the cars they sent to reviewers. Either way it's kinda suspicious.
